Answer:

Morgan divided 2 throughout the original equation, giving her |x-3.5|=2.5.

x = 6 and x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

|2x-7|=5 -- divide by 2

|x-3.5|=2.5 and |x-3.5|=-2.5 -- since this is an absolute value equation, we have to consider both positive and negative

x-3.5 = 2.5

x = 6

x-3.5 = -2.5

x = 1

A set of n = 5 pairs of x and y values has ssx = 10, ssy = 40 and sp = 10. for these data, the pearson correlation is

Juli2301 [7.4K]

r = correlation coefficient

$r = \frac{Sxy}{\sqrt{Sxx * Syy}}$

If: Sxx = 10, Syy = 40, Sxy = 10, then:

$r = \frac{10}{\sqrt{10 * 40}} \\\\ = \frac{10}{\sqrt{400}} \\\\ = \frac{10}{20} \\\\ = \frac{1}{2}$
